Table 2.
Deletion of gene regions in the four mutants and numbers of genes lost
| Strain | Chromosome | Position of sequence loss (bp) | Number of genes contained within the lost regions |
|---|---|---|---|
| DAF139 | 1 | 1 - 503,655 | 207 |
| DAF140* | 2 | 8,496,503 - 8,911,601 | 177 |
| DAF141 | 4 | 1 - 182,475 | 72 |
| TP11.1 | None | None | None |
*For DAF140, the plasmid vector insertion occurred in chromosome 1 (see Table 1). Chromosome 2 was affected by an untagged gene deletion event.
